Cosmic Slap is a delay with five knobs and two switches. Set the time, feed it back, and the repeats darken and saturate as they go — a tight rockabilly slap at one end, a self-oscillating wash at the other.

Tempo sync locks the time to your session; ping-pong throws the repeats across the stereo field.

Under the hood

Five knobs, two switches

🛸

Feedback-scaled saturation

Drive is tied to the feedback amount, so pushing the repeats grows character instead of just level.

🌌

A scene, not a faceplate

A procedural deep-space background — violet nebula, starfield, neon — with a hand-drawn alien and echo-tap shockwave rings that react to the feedback.

🎚️

Five controls, learnable in a minute

Time, feedback, tone, modulation and mix. No pages, no tabs, nothing hidden.
